Estimating the genome sizes of nine insect species using flow cytometry and K-mer analysis
The flow cytometry method was used to estimate the genome sizes of nine agriculturally important insects, including two coleopterans, five hemipterans and two hymenopterans. Among which, the coleopteran Lissorhoptrus oryzophilus had the largest genome of 981 Mb. The average genome size was 504 Mb, s...
